What is ChatGPT?

OpenAI offers ChatGPT, an advanced general intelligence (AGI) chatbot which interacts in a conversational way. The dialogue format makes it possible for ChatGPT to answer followup questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests. ChatGPT is a sibling model to InstructGPT, which is trained to follow an instruction in a prompt and provide a detailed response.

Great at assisting. Don't believe everything

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Underutilized. Mostly for emails and text correction. Translation, and idea creation. Good as a dictionary as well. There are limitations since confidentiality is important and you can't share documents or certain information with the LLM (Since they can use it to train their model). So for any data analysis or deep dive work regarding strategy, it's a no go. The other limitation is the inconsistency, a lot of hallucinations for basic tasks, and you may end up refurbishing your prompt for longer than actually doing the task. E.g. order this list in a tabular form, complete column B with explanations based on your knowledge.

Pros

  • Email generation
  • Restructuring text with a different tone
  • Challenging your texts, ideas, definitions and plans.
  • Generating images to better explain a topic
  • brainstorming

Cons

  • Data science related tasks
  • Detailing answers may result in hallucinations
  • Projects have improved the context functionality, however they also need work to better structure long discussions.

Return on Investment

  • Faster plan creation
  • Faster Understanding of complex subjects so action can be taken
  • Helps with visualizations that can fast track understanding of stakeholders and therefore faster decision making

The Best Overall AI for Anything & Everything

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

As a freelance writer, I use ChatGPT as an ideation partner, a research assistant, and a wordsmith. It has helped me trim lengthy articles, say things in a different way, provide me with options, and find the information I need. Things that use to take me 4 hours now take one or less.

Pros

  • Research
  • Ideation
  • Creative Writing
  • Operational Planning

Cons

  • If I use research mode, the output is incredibly redundant, with the bot saying the same thing at least three different ways, and requiring a lot of editing, even though the quality and thoroughness seems better.
  • I don't know how to use Agent mode, and would love a simple guide or how-to.

Return on Investment

  • Very high efficiency—things that used to take me 4 hours now take 1 or less.
  • Better output, as I can use it as a brainstorm partner and editor-in-chief.

ChatGPT for work

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Whenever we face a challenge and don’t know where to begin, it’s the first place we turn to spark ideas and outline possible directions. We rely on it for both business-side planning and technical coding projects. It has become an indispensable partner for brainstorming, problem-solving, and structuring our work effectively.

Pros

  • Explaining complex concepts from a first principle approach and really helping you understand them
  • Ingesting files to give in context answers
  • Image generation is great for presentations

Cons

  • Wish it had support for better slides generation. Sometimes we found ourselves using chatgpt to outline a presentation but build it ourselves or use a tool like Gamma
  • Maybe a chepear $10 plan. In some countries the US dollar can be expensive and $20 goes a long way.
  • I wish you could make projects with more files. They limit it. Or make the limit based on the content, not the number of files per se

Return on Investment

  • The timesaving of manual tasks is a great ROI
  • The speed up of idea to execution has also improved with ChatGPT
  • Empowering our people to take action and have initiative has also been a great ROI driver
